Shin splints are a common Joint N-11 Review  injury for both beginner and avid runners. However, those who play soccer, do aerobics or like to take a stroll in the park are just as likely to sustain this same type of injury. In this article I will address some of the common causes of shin pain as well as provide some prevention techniques.

Shin splints may be used to describe a lot of other lower leg problems, but it generally refers to a condition called Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS). Shin splints are caused by an inflammation of the tendons near the tibia, one of the long shin bones. Another possible cause is a pulling of the periosteum, which is a thin coating on bones, while running or doing aggressive walking.

The pain tends be centrally located on the front part of the lower leg, right below the knee. Shin splints usually start out as a dull pain with some discomfort at the beginning of the workout and reappear towards the end of the workout. One of the distinctive telltale signs of this injury are lumps and bumps along the tibia caused by inflammation.

For those who are runners, shin splints tend to come on when distance is increased rapidly or during an intense workout. The increased strain on the muscles leads to intensified inflammation. Leaving it alone or cutting back on your workouts may lessen or cause the inflammation to go away, but when the workouts resume, it will come back with a vengeance. Some other causes include rolling the ankle while running or walking, tight calf muscles, a tight Achilles tendon or weak ankle muscles.
